About this episode

The episode discusses a 0day vulnerability in Parallels, ZDI's response issues, and various exploits including those in LibreOffice.

We discuss an 0day that was dropped on Parallels after 7 months of no fix from the vendor, as well as ZDI's troubles with responses to researchers and reproducing bugs. Also included are a bunch of filesystem issues, and an insanely technical linux kernel exploit chain.
